Abstract Text | Defects in pathways governing genomic fidelity have been linked to improved response to immune checkpoint blockade therapy (ICB). Pathogenic POLE/POLD1 mutations can cause hypermutation, yet how diverse mutations in POLE/POLD1 influence antitumor immunity following ICB is unclear. Here, we comprehensively determined the effect of POLE/POLD1 mutations in ICB and elucidated the mechanistic impact of these mutations on tumor immunity. Murine syngeneic tumors harboring Pole/Pold1 functional mutations displayed enhanced antitumor immunity and were sensitive to ICB. Patients with POLE/POLD1 mutated tumors harboring telltale mutational signatures respond better to ICB than patients harboring wild-type or signature-negative tumors. A mutant POLE/D1 function-associated signature-based model outperformed several traditional approaches for identifying POLE/POLD1 mutated patients that benefit from ICB. Strikingly, the spectrum of mutational signatures correlates with the biochemical features of neoantigens. Alterations that cause POLE/POLD1 function-associated signatures generate T cell receptor (TCR)-contact residues with increased hydrophobicity, potentially facilitating T cell recognition. Altogether, the functional landscapes of POLE/POLD1 mutations shape immunotherapy efficacy. |

POLE | A629D | missense | unknown | POLE A629D lies within the polymerase domain of the Pole protein (PMID: 29352080). A629D has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 35817971, PMID: 31253177), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Pole protein function is unknown (PubMed, Mar 2024). | |
POLE | C333S | missense | unknown | POLE C333S lies within the exonuclease domain of the Pole protein (PMID: 29352080). C333S has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 35817971), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Pole protein function is unknown (PubMed, Mar 2024). | |
POLE | E265K | missense | unknown | POLE E265K does not lie within any known functional domains of the Pole protein (UniProt.org). E265K has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 35817971), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Pole protein function is unknown (PubMed, Mar 2024). | |
POLE | E277Q | missense | unknown | POLE E277Q lies within the exonuclease domain of the Pole protein (PMID: 29352080). E277Q has been identified in the scientific literature (PMID: 35817971), but has not been biochemically characterized and therefore, its effect on Pole protein function is unknown (PubMed, Mar 2024). | |
